Welcome to the Technical Exchange Meeting (TEM)!

Rocket Software’s Application Modernization & Connectivity (AMC) suite offers a comprehensive solution to analyze, develop, deploy, and run mission-critical applications. It enables re-platforming to cloud or distributed services with minimal changes to code or data, leveraging modern IDEs like Visual Studio and Eclipse. AMC supports modern COBOL and integrates with newer languages such as Java, C#, .NET, and PL/I. It is cloud-agnostic and enables the retention of application expertise while attracting new, modern talent. This eliminates the need to rewrite historically stable and reliable applications, allowing them to leverage modern platforms that are more efficient, scalable, and secure. Additionally, it results in tremendous savings in both time and operational costs.

Why Rocket Software’s AMC Enterprise Suite? Rocket Software’s modernization approach focuses on more than just the code base. Rocket looks at the whole picture: data and database requirements, output requirements, batch and online processing, disaster and failover, cyber security, code extraction, API’s, web services, testing and development environments. Rocket is there for the entire project and into production by providing professional service, software support, upgrades, and training. Best part is the savings: 50%+ annual system operating costs, 30% development improvement, 40% system performance, 15% quality improvement.

Enterprise Analyzer is the foundational tool in a modernization journey. It was engineered to efficiently handle mainframe codebases to create a comprehensive knowledge database. It also provides tools for interactive analysis, diagram creation, flowcharting, data usage, dead code detection, and business rules management. Active and up-to-date analytics improve decision-making, and the change analyzer helps determine the scope and impact of a change request or major enhancement.

Enterprise Developer & Enterprise Server are the development and production run time environments. High-performance, flexible, and scalable Hybrid IT deployment options to Linux, UNIX, Windows, and Cloud. Mainframe reliability, availability, and serviceability with a rich ecosystem of supporting technology partners. Development can support both mainframe and off-mainframe deployment.
